Post by: Danny on April 19, 2007, 02:51:40 PM Naw. ?I'm pretty sure this show will go on, as will the tour. ?There's really no reason why we should beleive otherwise.
I would say that I would not be suprised if Tommy Stinson doesn't play at the show, though. ?It just seems like something that could happen. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Apollon on April 19, 2007, 02:52:49 PM BS.
GN'R will appear. Many hear think that GnR cancel gigs for fun. This was perhaps done in the past, but not anymore nowadays. In 2006 the band was very reliable and this will not have changed. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: a. on April 19, 2007, 02:56:26 PM Sounds like you all just follow GN'R news. You may not know it, but other bands cancel concerts too. I wouldn't think too much about GN'R cancelling a show here or there, they are all humans right? Incubus just rescheduled some shows and NIN have done the same during the Beside You In Time/With Teeth tour.

How's Tommys hand?
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Steffi on April 19, 2007, 03:41:30 PM Tommy is probably gonna show up with a bruised eye and nervously tell people that he walked... into a door, while getting the evil eye from Axl.
Naw, they will show up! Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: LunsJail on April 19, 2007, 03:42:22 PM They'll be there but I'd go with 50/50 odds on Tommy playing.
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Chief on April 19, 2007, 03:58:50 PM i'd bet they will be there!
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Layne Staley's Sunglasses on April 19, 2007, 04:01:28 PM i'd bet they will be there! You'd win that bet, son. ;) Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Danny on April 19, 2007, 04:18:18 PM I can see Tommy not playing and a huge debate going on around here about why they didn't play the Japan shows without him.

Post by: 25 on April 19, 2007, 04:42:58 PM I can see Tommy not playing and a huge debate going on around here about why they didn't play the Japan shows without him. Tommy shouldn't play at all on this leg, hopefully they've been rehearsing with someone else for the last couple of weeks. The last thing they need is to have Tommy re-injure himself playing the cokefest shows and have the touring schedule further screwed up. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: russtcb on April 19, 2007, 04:50:26 PM I can see Tommy not playing and a huge debate going on around here about why they didn't play the Japan shows without him. I could see Tommy playing, them announcing a date, cover art and tracklist for the album and there STILL being a big debate on this board. Lol. Just kidding, I agree with you though, I don't think Tommy will be there and yes, I believe a giant debate will erupt over it. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Danny on April 19, 2007, 05:02:33 PM Actually, I see a giant debate no matter if Tommy plays or not. If he doesn't play, people are going to say "why didn't they just use the replacement for the Japan shows". If he does play, people are going to say "his hand can't be too bad if he's playing so soon after he got injured. They should have played Japan".
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: WhatIsItMan on April 19, 2007, 05:19:40 PM They should just have one of the 3 guitarists play bass. :D
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: russtcb on April 19, 2007, 05:30:29 PM They should just have one of the 3 guitarists play bass.? ?:D Then who would play that guitarists parts? Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Nytunz on April 19, 2007, 05:33:25 PM ha! Well, im pretty sure the odds are on our side.... :yes: : ok:
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: ben9785 on April 19, 2007, 06:44:29 PM The show will go ahead I'm sure, don't worry. Tommy should be right by then. No problem. ;)

No problem.? ;) Thats what I'm a-hopin' for! Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: HoldenCaulfield on April 19, 2007, 08:04:57 PM I really think if they weren't gonna make it, they'd have announced it already. Have faith :peace:

I could see that. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: MotherGooseLuvR on April 19, 2007, 11:04:03 PM Isn't this surreal?
I love being a GNR fan. No other band's fans get to bond like this... gathering on the internet to debate if concerts will actually happen. I'm tellin' ya, those other clowns don't know what they're missin'. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Krispy Kreme on April 19, 2007, 11:08:00 PM It really depends on the severity of the injury to Tommy. If it is just a sprain or bruise, he will be ok. If it is ligament damage, then he won't be playing for a while. No South Africa.
But I hope the show goes on! Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: oneway23 on April 19, 2007, 11:43:03 PM The show always goes on, my friends
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Danny on April 20, 2007, 12:15:29 AM Quote The show always goes on, my friends Even if it's postponed. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: pollyblue on April 20, 2007, 02:00:36 AM off course guns n roses will be there. first time south africa!
Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: Cooker on April 20, 2007, 02:47:51 AM Looks like they will not! Damn.

Famous last words.... :-X Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: ben9785 on April 20, 2007, 03:12:04 AM Damn you guys.. and what were the odds..
Looks like Tommy's injury is more severe than assumed Who knows how long it will take for this injury to heal so he can comfortably play bass Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: 25 on April 20, 2007, 04:05:09 AM Looks like Tommy's injury is more severe than assumed Who knows how long it will take for this injury to heal so he can comfortably play bass A sprained wrist is a really nasty injury to get for anyone, even more so for anyone who plays an instrument/sport as the wrist is prone to both overuse injury and repetitive strain injury - the irony being that the rehab exercises are usually repetitive wrist rolls and curls. Two weeks isn't an unreasonable amount of time to allow for recuperation but it's really easy to re-injure the weak wrist, so it could take a lot longer. Title: Re: Odds they show up in South Africa? Post by: GnR-NOW on April 20, 2007, 08:04:03 AM Not to sound too negative, but when was the last time GNR still did a show after it was reported to be cancelled/postponed?
